I agree with everything you said. The tournament is just to unpredictable. A lot of luck involved. Gonzaga made a final 4 playing a 16,8,4, and 11 and can make the championship game by playing a 7 or 4.

Yep.  All it will take is the eyeball test.  If people think "winning" or not is all there is to it, they're out of their minds.

Wait...winning isn't the ultimate? No wonder we wound up here.

Like others have said I hope that he sticks to a system and recruits players that fit into it. The days of IU handing out scholarships like candy at a 4th of July parade need to be over. An offer from IU needs to mean something again. Too often over the past few years we've heard about kids getting offers after looking good in a workout or a game or two. Elite programs don't do that.

I saw where our new coach is on twitter asking people to send tweets as he is heading back to Dayton right now. He thanked this site for the "new shirts". I don't have twitter, but if you do or know someone who does, please tell him not to show the shirt at his presser ala "Crean and Crimson"... 

That's not Archie.

I don't know if awkward is the word I would use. He seems pretty straightforward to me. Hopefully we find out quick how he recruits. Took his brother two years at Zona. Archie being on the US under 19 squad should help him with connections.

Archie was an assistant to Sean who was the head coach of that U19 team. Calipari took over earlier in the year so I'm not sure he will still be an assistant coach.

Please use your brain and reading comprehension skills if you have them.    This post is incredibly idiotic and misses the point completely.

Is anyone worried that OSU will try to poach him in the future? Matta is on borrowed time.

This is a good article concerning the hiring of Archie. It kind of makes the flight aware stuff look silly. He met with IU officials in Atlanta and San Jose.

He had 6 scholarship players total one year, and still got 24 wins and won a couple tournament games? That's mightily impressive.

The checkmark inside the blue thing at the top means verified when celebrities/high-profile organizations are involved.

There's an l in front of the Miller and that's something people do when they try to fool people. Famous people like coaches, athletes, actors etc etc have a blue check mark next to their name.

What name did I call you?   Again....reading comprehension. Not a strong suit of yours.  Never has been.  And if you can dish it but not take it, you probably need to go find another hobby.   Everybody got it but you.  Same old....thin skinned, passive aggressive Josh.

Where's the name calling? Jeez...I can't find it. Lol

You're so combative.

I'm really curious what he can do here at IU. None of his Dayton classes were great..

We all thought Crean was an amazing recruiter and he was pretty good for a little while. One thing that really helped him in recruiting I believe was his ability to pitch a vision. Crean was a salesman like no other, I don't get that vibe from Miller, Miller seems a little awkward to me.

Miller is not awkward. He is a basketball coach who is confident in himself and his ability to teach what he knows.

 

Crean was awkward, and once you got past his "vision," it was usually just a bunch of baseless drivel and confusing platitudes.

I know you can't find it.  Didn't happen.  I called your post idiotic.  And it was.  That's not calling you a name....reading comprehension.

Can I get your PM from yesterday about how Donovan will be our coach? Lol...you're so out of touch.
